Comfort for the Future with Serenity

Switch & Save

Hydro-Québec is now offering financial incentives to customers to replace their existing central heating system with Steffes’ Serenity Forced Air Furnace. Opt for central heating with electric thermal storage (ETS) and receive $22,000 in financial assistance from Hydro‑Québec.

What is Electric Thermal Storage?

Steffes Electric Thermal Storage systems gain efficiency by taking advantage of off-peak electricity, which is charged at a lower rate since it is consumed during times when demand on the electrical grid is low. Steffes ETS systems convert off-peak electricity to heat and store it in heating elements contained within high-density ceramic bricks.

With the Steffes ETS systems’ abilities to store vast amounts of heat for long periods of time, you can get on-peak performance for an off-peak price. These capabilities can save you 20 to 30 percent on heating bills without having to sacrifice the comfort and convenience of a traditional heating system. Our ETS systems don’t produce carbon monoxide, so they’re safe and require very minimal maintenance.

GENERATOR COMPATIBLE

The Serenity system can integrate with a backup generator, ensuring it continues to operate during power outages. This capability enhances your home’s resilience by maintaining essential heating systems, offering comfort and peace of mind during extended disruptions. The generator helps distribute the unit’s stored heat throughout your home, ensuring consistent warmth. Ask your contractor how they can get you connected.

HEAT PUMP FRIENDLY

Serenity is ideally coupled with a conventional heat-pump. Today’s heat pumps provide efficient, low-cost heating and cooling, but many struggle to provide adequate comfort in frigid climates. When the demand for heat exceeds a heat pump’s capacity, the Serenity furnace adds the precise amount of stored heat to deliver consistent comfort in your home. And because that stored heat is generated off-peak, the combined benefits provide the best, most economical heating system on the market.

Steffes’ Comfort Plus Forced Air Furnace also qualifies for the Hydro-Québec incentive for those needing to heat a larger home.

Hydro-Québec Incentives

Hydro‑Québec is offering financial assistance worth $15,000 to customers who have a central heating ETS system installed. Customers can also receive an additional $7,000 if they install an efficient heat pump at the same time as an ETS system.

Less well known in Québec, ETS is a technology that has been in use for a number of years in areas where dynamic pricing is available.

Transition énergétique Québec’s Chauffez vert program also offers subsidies that can help lower the cost of replacing an oil or propane furnace with ETS. Customers should check with their municipality for further incentives as well.
